Mr. Walter always expressed the opinion that the joint committee interfered with the work of the Subcommittee on Immigration and therefore it was a joint committee that was utterly needless. Therefore. he frowned upon it and refused to make any applications for appropriations. In that decision he had my wholehearted approval. Here let me also read a statement with reference to the joint committee. I read what the distinguished chairman of the subcommittee. the gentleman from Oklahoma . said at page 495. We are faced with the fact that we have a good many Members of the House who have a sort of builtin opposition to joint committees.
